Generation Hull

Generation Hull is a Hull-based programme putting children and young people in charge of the city's creative future. Backed by Thrive Co-Operative Learning Trust and 72 partners, we're giving young people impactful cultural experiences through our Young People Steering Group, Arts Councils in schools, Apprenticeships and Work Experience. Hull's next generation of creative talent deserves to be seen, heard and valued.
